Why Travelers Love Restaurante La
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
At my arrival the place was packed, don’t know if it was because the holiday but the place can’t get more crowded. They sit us right away. Just the smell of the food on the table behind us make my mouth water, literally I was dripping saliva I had to get a napkin to clean myself. Wen the food arrived I knew it will be amazing. Not only that the staff is super humble, kind and sweet the food is out of this world. The view so pretty, there’s so many things that makes this place one of the best, if I could give it more than 5 stars I will. So sad that I came here the day before my departure, otherwise I’ll drive again the almost 2 hours just to get this delicious and super organic food. Next time I come to Puerto Rico this is going to be the first place I’ll come to eat. Amazing! It's worth the trip. Don't be shy. View was nice it felt great to be there. Rubi was our server. It was our first time there. She was amazing. She gave us excellent choices. She was friendly and diligent. We felt right at home. The place was packed, but it didn't take long. Food was well presented, hot and amazing taste. I went there with family. Google Map gave us 2 routes from the south. One from Juana Diaz and the other from Coamo. We recommend the one from Juana Díaz. This historic spot is well worth the drive through the mountains. The food and service was top notch. The atmosphere and views remind you of the beauty the area offers. We had a party of 6 and sat with no problem on a Saturday afternoon. Everything came out fresh and delicious. The criollo seasoning and expert preparation comes through in every bite. Portions are generous and I definitely recommend sharing. Kid friendly and they offer unique dishes not found in most places on the island.

I would give this place 10 stars if I could. Absolutely delicious! I was looking forward to this meal. The portion size is huge! My girlfriend and I actually shared one entree with rice and longaniza de cerdo with beans and yucca. We also ordered an appetizer, a basket of relleno de longaniza. For dessert I had the vanilla flan, it was really good. The food is absolutely delicious. The service was excellent. We had an amazing view of the valley as we ate.
